I think someone at BB was OK’ing orders in excess of inventory, thinking they could get enough to cover.

Sounds like somebody guessed wrong, Heads should roll.

Heck, it's not like flooding in Asia would reduce the number of hard disks available..

Oh... Wait. It did.

Someone needs to do their homework.

...actually...in excess of their minimal logistics line.

If you have ever noticed - Best Buy is not in the business of selling electronics...their primary business if you pay close attention is selling insurance and warranties. They can sell all the insurance and warranties in world - but not hardware. The don’t have the scale of logistics that Walmart, Amazon, Target, etc., have.

I have never relied upon Best Buy as hardware or software source when providing IT support for my customers.
